BEFORE YOU CHOOSE
Choose around your day, not just a specification.

01
Your applications
Check the recommended requirements for the software or games you use, including operating system and processor architecture.

04
Ports & accessories
Check display output, USB connections, charging requirements and any hub or adapter you will need.

USEFUL ANSWERS
Laptops & PCs FAQs
Practical answers to help you narrow the choice. Always check the exact product and manufacturer specifications before ordering.
Laptop or desktop: where should I start?
Choose a laptop if moving between rooms or locations is central to your day. For a fixed setup, consider the desktop range alongside a separate monitor, keyboard and mouse. Compare the complete setup cost.
How much memory do I need?
Use your applications’ recommended requirements as a starting point. More demanding multitasking or creative work may need additional RAM. Check the exact model’s upgrade options; some laptop memory is soldered.
Will every Windows application run on every Windows laptop?
Check the application vendor’s support information, especially for laptops with an Arm-based processor. Confirm compatibility for specialist software, peripherals and games before ordering.
Can I add a second screen?
Check the laptop’s video outputs and the monitor’s inputs. USB-C display support is model-specific; the connector shape alone does not confirm it. Our monitor guide explains what to check.
